There are countless amazing photos of nature across the United States, but what happens when someone tries to recreate a scene from each state using Legos?

Canadian Jeff Friesen’s project "50 States of Lego" uses the iconic toy to create some funny scenes of stereotypical life in the United States. Whether it be Kansas’ twisters, Georgia’s heat, or Colorado’s snowy peaks, Jeff breathes life into these intimate scenarios of life in America.

The beloved toy from Denmark became a bonding experience between Jeff Friesen and his daughter June when they started setting up miniature scenes in their home and photographing them.

“I lived in the United States for a couple of years and wondered if it would be possible to make LEGO scenes for all 50 States,” says Friesen, “[It's] a much harder task given the limitations of June's brick collection.”

The father-daughter duo started their Lego project by exploring some high-concept scenarios. They moved on to recreating their Canadian homeland, but the project was short lived because the country only has 10 provinces.

"My daughter and I continue to play with toys, but we also set up a little table-top photo studio where we could make toy dioramas and take pictures of them. It's serious fun," says Friesen.

Friesen is a professional photographer from Halifax, Nova Scotia, who has received critical acclaim for his work but after becoming a father has learned to change hats.

"I’m quite serious in my other work — this project [sort of] gives me an outlet, and I always like to keep that time with her productive," he told Wired.

The photo series is now available on Amazon for purchase. To see more of Jeff’s work go to his website.
